The New Ugly Christmas Sweater

I realize it’s barely Thanksgiving and I’m already talking Christmas, but let’s be honest…there were Christmas decorations at Walgreens October 1 so I think I’ve held in my holiday cheer long enough. One of my favorite ways to show holiday spirit is by sporting an ugly Christmas sweater. Now why would I want to wear anything ugly? Because ugly is the new pretty. Except when it comes to this.

Tees That Make You Look Twice

If there’s one wardrobe item I can’t live without, it’s a fun t-shirt. Whether it’s got a strange animal or an ironic quote, I just love a good tee that makes you look twice. Animal Royalty is the perfect example of this (and if you don’t know who they are, read up on the brand here) but here’s some other ideas to get your creative t-shirt juices flowing…plus the comments you may or may not receive from wearing them.

Currently Obsessing Over: Markus Lupfer Sweaters

Having a variety of sweaters is important during this time of year, especially in Chicago. But how many black and grey ones can you possibly own? You have to spruce it up sometimes, and Markus Lupfer does just that.

They’re random. They’re weird. But I can’t help but obsess over them.
